Book By Amanda Lewis
A History of Vampires is a very different tale on the vampire and how they lead their lives. After reading this book, I am still not sure what the plot was or what the point of the story was. I did not like the Hitler plot and how Anne Frank was involved in the story. I think a different person could have been chosen and the plot would have been the same. That storyline made me uncomfortable with the constant mention throughout the book. There were some chapters that were not necessary and many parts that I skipped over because I did not understand what they had to do with the story. There was no character development whatsoever. I still do not understand how Angelina fell in love with Jude, she seemed to only like him for his deeds which is not love. I can see how the author wanted to set up the end of the book for another, but I did not find that plot line interesting.
I think that the fact Jude had been pursuing Angelina for three years without her knowledge is incredibly creepy and should not have been part of the reason that she fell in love with him. Whenever she is around him, she feels a pull to him. She thinks that is her heart pushing her toward the person she is meant to be with. I think it is a way for him to trap women and get them to marry him.
